("Yeah...so she is clearly MY G.o.dDESS WIFE BEFORE, my first EX-WIFE...")

("Until I knew the WHOLE TWISTED truth...").

As Zeran was looking shocked at the presence of Mai, his consciousness submerged into his sea of memories. His mind was in a trance that retracted back the vivid images of his past.

In his flashback, he was now in a floating dome-like temple in which, everything was made out of pure gla.s.s. There were sculpted pillars patterned in the temple's circular form. The pillars were very much translucent that were reflecting their a.s.sorted glistening colors such as you'd see in a rainbow, radiating a combination of awe-inspiring vibrance and divine brilliance. The walls were transparent and prismatic that would seem the heavenly clouds were visible below his feet. Zeran was panting with a confident look, as he was on top of a slain three headed cerberus at the center, while the cerberus was bleeding colorless liquid from all of its severe wounds and cuts. Its fur was deep black and the flames of its eyes were gone. His golden claw was seeped in the pure liquid. Suddenly, a bright ball of golden light shone in front of him. Thereon, Mai descended to him such as a G.o.ddess was saved by her hero. Though, Mai's appearance wasn't such a strong independent valkyrie but, her look was a pure maiden's innocent appearance. Her strong will wasn't visible, since delicateness and benevolence were witnessed by him instead. Her eyes were oh so blooming in divine, free from all hatred! Her form was the ideal embodiment of such a light G.o.ddess, especially for Zeran. Moreover, she was having huge pure white wings arching from her beautiful back, representing a true light G.o.ddess's majestic form. He noticed her and the first thing he saw was her br.i.m.m.i.n.g smile that would relieve anyone of their plight. As her feet touched the gla.s.s encased floor, her long hair has flown down gracefully. She looked at him and spoke with her pure soothing G.o.ddess-like voice filled with deep grat.i.tude,

"Thank you for saving our world Zeran..."

"I knew you could do it..."

"Now what reward do you want..."

"Reincarnate hero king Zeran?".

Zeran replies,

"Say Mai...I know this sounds weird but..."

"I want you to become my wife...".

Soon, he made his golden claw to vanish quite magically. He knelt down on the ground in a very n.o.ble-like manner towards her. He revealed to the G.o.ddess Mai a dazzling and pure diamond ring encased in a red velvet box, turning the whole place's atmosphere to be filled with fluttering hearts. The golden b.u.t.terflies emerged and were fluttering around the area, turning the place to be filled with such as golden stars moving around. Zeran looked at her eyes directly. Then, he composed himself and proposes in a very gentle way,

"Will you marry me?".

Mai was surprised and her red blus.h.i.+ng cheeks were seen by Zeran's interested eyes waiting for her response. Mai shunned her feverish face away for a second, since she was kinda deciding in her thoughts although, her G.o.ddess smile was gone, that turned Zeran to feel some kind of doubt and his confident smile was losing its vibrance gradually. She noticed that it was making him uneasy, so she turned her face back at him and she left out a nice smile. She said with sincerity yet, she wasn't looking at him directly,

"Oh...I see...well..."

"I truly accept your offer Zeran...".

As Zeran heard that coming from her, his uneasiness had vanished and his grateful smile was back. His gleeful voice leaked out,

"I love you...Mai...my G.o.ddess...".

He hugged Mai with all his heart. Mai responded by embracing him with her divine arms, yet her face expressed deep guilt that would seem she was hiding something from him, although he didn't notice that, as he was too complacent of her acceptance. Soon enough, her pent-up guilt made her to slip her mouth, that was filled with sorrow,

"I see...I just hope the hard truth won't shock you hero Zeran...".

That sudden moment, as she heard her own slip of the mouth, she was surprised and it seemed she told herself that she shouldn't have revealed a glimpse of the pandora's box to him. While he had heard her intriguing reply, his face full of happiness before was replaced by a dumbfounded one. The air felt heavy and the golden b.u.t.terflies vanished instantly. He left out a strange sudden reply,

"Huh?".

After sometime, a s.h.i.+ning ray of light surrounded the both of them. The divine light shone bright and transferred the two of them in another floating place. The floor was also encased in gla.s.s, although the eye-catching part is that, in front of them was the extravagant and huge pure white castle in pristine gla.s.s. It's structure was like you'd see a grandeous castle in the middle ages but it was made in frozen ice and polished luminous crystals, etched in very intricate design. There were some protruding s.h.i.+ning crystals releasing their prismatic rainbow colors from the floor. Even though, they were at high-ground the winds were calm. Zeran was fascinated by the very beauty of the place, since it was the sacred sanctuary of the light G.o.ddess Mai. Other than that, Na.s.sus was leaning at the entrance, as if he was waiting for the both of them, making Zeran to utter a deep question,

"Na.s.sus? Why are you here?".

Na.s.sus replies,

"For your recognition of joining our circle with the light G.o.ddess Mai...".

Zeran felt surprised and his face looked dumbstrucked even more than before. As for Mai, it made her to feel b.u.t.terflies in her stomach. Her body felt numb and she had second thoughts if she should tell the harsh truth she was hiding from him. Though, she gulped down her throat and she looked tense, that zipped her mouth from slipping. Later, the three of them entered the lavis.h.i.+ng crystal castle. Zeran witnessed the amazing interior of the royal palace. Again, more prismatic pillars were there to welcome them at the hallways. The whole area looked even more s.p.a.cious than from the outside. The floor was tiled in gla.s.sy marble and the long red carpet on the floor was there to greet them with utter respect. The walls were pure white. Two stairs opposing each other that leads to the two rooms left and right. The ever grandè gla.s.s sculpture of Mai in its absolute detail of her holistic appearance was on the upper floor too. His face was surprised with amazement by the grandeous place from the inside. The three of them just proceeded straight and there was a white crystal door radiating rainbow aura. As they opened and entered through the crystal door, Zeran noticed the queen-sized round and bright white bed that was made out of high quality spider silk, glistening its s.h.i.+ne at the very center. The bedroom was formed into an octagon and each side was having small koi waterfall fishponds flowing into the serene pure waters, in which all of them were connected around them at the edges, with various koi fishes swimming about in harmony. There were huge and small floating quartz crystal that was reflecting the very appearance of rainbow koi fishes in its very form. At the luminous ceiling was the gla.s.s chandelier bringing out rays of bluish brilliance. The place looked-like it was truly the room worthy of a G.o.ddess of the Skygla.s.s world. Though, there were also three males that were sitting at the queen-sized bed. The three males had various handsome looks. All of them had heroic appearances and wore regal clothes fit for saviors of the G.o.ddess. Though, their expressions were letting out villanous evil grins on their faces as they saw the G.o.ddess Mai, in which it was very ironic to see. Suddenly, the doors slammed shut. Na.s.sus, went in front of Zeran and Mai. Then, Na.s.sus speaks with utter respect and warm welcome to Zeran,

"We welcome you Zeran...for joining the heroes circle for the G.o.ddess Mai..."

"And becoming...ONE OF HER HUSBANDS...".

The air felt icy cold as the shocking truth was revealed to Zeran. As he heard that alarming welcome, he was filled with deep confusion and exclaimed with a problematic expression on his face, that he wouldn't want to believe what he had heard,

"Wait...WHAT?!".

He had a tensed up feeling and he felt sweaty. He turned his face to Mai and held her shoulders, since he wanted to hear the whole truth coming from her, so he asks with all his heart to her, while he was shaking her whole body,

"Mai is this all true?!".

Mai's only response was a subtle nod with a saddened face, that turned out Na.s.sus was telling the harsh truth. He was no longer shocked yet, his face was seething with rage, since it felt like he was tricked by his very ideal G.o.ddess. The air grew more intense and it was heating up gradually. He asks her again but, his eyes was filled with great wrath as he kept on shaking her body,

"MAI! WHAT'S THE MEANING OF THIS?!".

She was struck with deep silence. The only reply she did was to leak out sorrowful pure crystal tears from her crying face. As Zeran witnessed her pitiful and sorrowful face he had stopped holding her shouders. He gripped his own skull tight since he was having a hard time to accept the terrifying truth. Mai felt guilty such as she had stabbed his loving heart and let him feel the grievious pain from behind. Soon enough, she tries to apologize and explain with all her dear heart and soul,

"Zeran...I'm sorry that I didn't tell you before but it's—".

Though, Na.s.sus interrupts her,

"Zeran...You should know that in this world there are alot of heroes and saviors...".

The other hero, went close to G.o.ddess Mai and held her flawless shoulder. The other hero knacked out a devilish smile directly and said with great empahasis at Zeran,

"And like you...we wanted a TASTE of a G.o.ddess aswell..."

"So why don't we SHARE and have a great TIME with OUR G.o.ddess wife...".

Mai turned her face away to Zeran trying to tell him that she doesn't want hurt him nor let him believe what the other hero said yet, for Zeran it felt like he was toyed by the G.o.ddess, due to the current incident happening before his eyes. Thereon, he was in his thoughts that created a deep scar in his heart and it was squeezed by the thorn of lies he had incurred,

("Da*n it all!")

("After all we had lots of great and fun times together...")

("This b.i.t.c.h of a G.o.ddess didn't tell me anything about this...").

Suddenly, he punched the wall with immense force, that wrought out a strong impact that reverberated around the room, that even left out a huge crack and bore a crater as he released his arm. The chandelier shook from the aftermath. The other heroes, except Na.s.sus were all astunned in silence as they noticed the Zeran burning in hatred near the crystal door. Zeran tried to compose himself but, the wrath in his eyes was still leaking of crimson rage. Soon, he opened the door and left the room. Mai tried to follow him and call him back with all her caring heart and yearning tears like she was a desperate lover,

"Zeran...please wai—".

Suddenly, Na.s.sus gripped her hand very tight, that made her to fail in the attempt of catching unto the leaving Zeran. Mai turned her look at Na.s.sus. Her face had expressed a very sorrowful and teary-eyed look that very much depicted to let her free from his unG.o.dly chains even just for once although, Na.s.sus wasn't even fazed or felt pity for her. His face was cold and didn't show any kind of emotion. His only response to her was an intense slap to her gorgeous face, that turned Mai's expression to be very terrified and white to the bottom of her heart. As if slapping the face of a divine being wasn't enough to display blasphemy, he flung the G.o.ddess Mai into her pure white bed with great force. She felt some of her bones had cracked although, the scarier thing she had witnessed was her heroes were looking at her with their scary smiles and leaving out demonic laughters. The atmosphere felt heavy with a mix of distorted desire and scarred pleasure. As she saw the demons were near her presence again, her expression and appearance were no longer of a divine G.o.ddess but a traumatized maiden caged into the carnal horrors of her own heroes and saviors. Her body was frozen in fear. Her lips felt numb in the white cold. She resort to her last attempt of shouting out for help, in which it was very ironic to see for a G.o.ddess to act like that in front of her other heroes,

"N-no...please Zeran..."

"SAVE MEEEEE!".

That sudden moment, the door slammed and shut itself tight, sealing off the entry to anyone, since the G.o.ddess's harvest shall commence from within. A b.l.o.o.d.y harvest moon of carnal pa.s.sion and chains of bliss in which, it would seem unholy in its very image, despite the G.o.ddess was the main attraction. An act of blasphemy was being done in the sealed room, as the G.o.ddess's crying tears was being heard by Zeran's extraordinary senses. The light had fallen once again and Zeran was there to witness it before his eyes. He was filled with grievous despair as he was leaving the crystal castle. Infernal wrath was the face he had masked yet, broken tears were leaking out from his eyes, since the feeling he ever felt was the treachery from his ideal G.o.ddess despite her yearning voice for him. As a long time has pa.s.sed, Zeran got up from the bed and the maiden-like Mai was there with him in a certain non-too-shabby room of an inn. He wasn't any happier even when Mai was there to accompany him. In fact, he was more enraged when he's with her. Mai tried to touch his numb shoulders but the only response she got from him was cold ignorance, as it seemed he was no longer seeing her as the benevolent and beautiful G.o.ddess in the highest prime, but a perverted sl*t who is desperate for several lovers, even though she is not. She can no longer see the heroic and n.o.ble Zeran from before since, his face was numb and cold. Her crystal tears had broken out but, it didn't matter for Zeran aymore. Her apologetic and saddened words can no longer reach him. She embraced him tight and let him feel her warm chest and body yet, the frozen ice and flaming scar in his body blocked all of her feelings for him. Soon enough, he uttered in monotone,

"Tomorrow you'll be with Na.s.sus...as per OUR agreement..."

"Be grateful that I didn't hurt you like they did..."

"Nor do I join them in their so called G.o.dDESS HARVEST..."

"You SL*T G.o.dDESS...".

G.o.ddess Mai dropped more of her crystal tears. Later, she slipped out her tongue and tod him that there is another demon lord summoned by the Dark G.o.ddess of her world. Zeran sighed. He didn't show any sign of thanks nor any kind of respect unlike before, as his heart was encased in sheer cold crystal ice yet, it was ruptured by the infernal scar from within. Afterwards, he left and locked the door while Mai was still inside. He was back at the floating temple filled with encircling pillars. The cerberus wasn't there anymore but, a burned to the ash material was there. The whole body of the summoned demon lord was charred to ashes, not leaving any dent of former existence. Soon, there was a bright light and transferred him to another area. Thereon, Mai wasn't the one who descended, but it was G.o.ddess a.r.s.eia, that turned him to be in his thoughts,

("Hmmmm...so mom's the one who will give me my reward...")

("Instead of that sl*t G.o.ddess Mai...")

("It figures...").

He sighed and he masked his face with a forced-out grin and smile as he was communicating to G.o.ddess a.r.s.eia. As he was done faking his smile, his other wish of sending G.o.ddess Mai with him in another world, as a normal human being with him and their divine marriage null and void was somehow approved. Mai emerged in front of him and hugged him for the last time. A bluish white ray of light shone at the two of them. She kissed him right in his lips but Zeran's kiss was added with a fang that let Mai drip out crimson blood from her mouth. She wasn't angry nor furious since, she felt that she deserved it. Thereupon, Mai left out her last words to him before the two of them vanished,

"I'm very sorry...Zeran...please...forgive me..."

"But I also...thank you..."

"For freeing me..."

"Dark G.o.ddess Komina...I guess you were right..."

"Sooner or later I'll need to face the consequences...even if you're a dark G.o.ddess you're also kind like Ru..."

"Until a new light G.o.ddess comes down to our world, Aiko..."

"Please take care of it...".

Though, before Zeran left, he was given a glimpse of Na.s.sus and the other heroes having a p.i.s.sed-off talk at the former light G.o.ddess Mai's bedroom, since they were told that their light G.o.ddess wife was transferred to another world and descended into a normal human being thanks to Zeran's wish. Soon he hears Na.s.sus's composed voice,

"She shall return..."

"But first...".

In a split of a second, he struck and killed the other heroes with his black claw. Gourging out their hearts and penetrating their ma.s.sacred bodies through and through. Their blood spurted out like a red wine fountain. The whole bedroom of the light G.o.ddess was slathered in crimson paint. Their hearts were crushed and squeezed out, flas.h.i.+ng out their lives quick. The other heroes weren't able to counter his lethal strike since he was much faster than anyone else there. Na.s.sus was also splashed by their impure blood all throughout his body. Soon upon he leaked out a cold voice to their dead corpses,

"Since you are all a hindrance to my plan..."

"I shall take G.o.ddess Mai as my own..."

"But first...I must meet that SERENE G.o.dDESS who somehow understands my goal..."

"I don't know why is she supporting me..."

"Even though, I treat her with pain and sufferring...".

As he held an abyss black dagger but he was holding the steel tip of the blade rather than the handle. His hand was seeped in blood and continued to drip out his vile internal red liquid. As Zeran remembered the horrifying deed Na.s.sus had done to his allies before, Zeran was surprised in his thoughts,

("Honestly...maybe I shouldn't have remembered that again...geez Na.s.sus...what drives your guns...")

("I wonder who's this OTHER G.o.dDESS he keeps on blabbering about...").

Soon, his deep recollection had stopped and his consciousness returned to his own brand of reality. He was now seeing the strong willed and independent valkyrie-like Mai looking at him with great disgrace, while the two of them were at Ru's decent living room. As he saw Mai's furious face and enraged eyes, he tells her in a trivial manner with great emphasis,

"Err...I'm NOT your HUSBAND now remember..."

"So...why the face Mai?".

Mai replies,

"You didn't help us in our battle back there..."

"Breaking your nation's agreement with ours!"

"YOU IDIOTIC HERO KING!".

Suddenly, Ru emerged like a fallen angel had flown down gracefully, in front of Mai. Ru's silky hair flown down in a soft breeze. She was wearing her signature outfit without her shrouding cloak. The two girls were looking at each other's eyes directly. Ru knacked out a sarcastic smile and said oozing with interest,

"It seems you're early, former G.o.ddess Mai...".

Mai sighed and felt that she was very much p.i.s.sed-off by the very sight of the weird dark G.o.ddess Ruhime that was standing very close in front of her, that made her to reply with her composed voice,

"Yeah...I'm here..."

"Ru...".

Zeran was seeing the presence of the two beauties looking at each other eye to eye. He felt a unique mix of flaming interest and chilling terror. He was witnessing Ru with her vixen-like sinister smile amplified by her intense golden eyes and menacing smile, spewing out violet miasma around her place. At the opposing side was Mai with her furious proud tiger-like smile aided with her brave crystal eyes, releasing out bluish flames around the area. It was like the two were having a duel and some kind of communication just by looking at their dazzling eyes, turning Zeran to be isolated and left out from their very presence. An unusual silent battle of a valkyrie and a succubus was taking place. A little while later, he was in his thoughts feeling kind of tense,

("Is it just me or looking at both of them...")

("SCARES THE LIGHTS OUT OF ME!?")

("HELP! THERE ARE TWO CRAZY G.o.dDESSES BEFORE ME!").
